It's a GREAT snowy day!

We woke up today with a covering of "white stuff" on the ground! That was at 6 a.m. It's now 9:30, and most of it has melted. That's a good thing because Phil has an appointment this afternoon to get the shot in his back that blocks the nerves and makes him feel lots better. The joint problem that I had earlier with the new chemo med is much better today, but I'll definitely be ready for that side effect next time. I'm ready to get out and do something! "Cabin fever" has set in! I'll report later about how I've cured the fever!!

I'm ba-a-a-a-ack!

Yesterday I finished my 5th chemo treatment, and, as my doctor promised, I don't feel "green"!!! In fact I feel really well. Because Phil is teaching 3 Anatomony and Physiology labs at Austin Peay this semester and has a lab on Fridays, Blair took a day from school and took me to my treatment. We had a good day together (when I wasn't sleeping off the intervenous Benedryl they gave me before my actual infusion!). I'm officially over half finished with chemo, and then all that's left is 6 weeks of radiation. One good thing about staying inside so much lately has been my opportunity to catch up on my reading. I've been introduced to a new author--Mary Kay Andrews. Her books are fairly good, light reading although not quite as entertaining as "Miss Julia". I've also been reading Linda Nichols and Karen Kingsbury and have enjoyed their books as well.

A really great day!!

Well, it's the 6th day after my chemo treatment...and I feel really human again!! I woke up feeling good and hope to get a few things done today (like some long overdue scrapbooking and more reading!! Important stuff--not dishes or dusting--ha, ha) I'm even going out with Phil for a drive while he runs some errands!! Even though it's really c~o~l~d out, I have a bad case of cabin fever--gotta get out for a little while! It's going to be a great day!!!

Snow???

Weather conditions here...c*o*l*d!!!! We even had snow flurries yesterday--beautiful!! New thought: Hey Rach...do you have the order of the "Miss Julia" books? I emailed it to Gayle but didn't keep a copy for myself...now a friend wants the order.

Got a Little Behind...

Sorry Rach and Blair...last night was the first time in a couple of days I've felt like being at the computer...Today's the 5th day after chemo, and I'm still a little under the weather...I'm looking forward to better days ahead--it will be better!
